I am not sure of the reason for this field: linear(100,ratio(trm(1,252),sptr252),-100,1)

It looks to me that it is the 52 week return divided by a value that is the same for all the stocks, so it does not affect the ranking. Therefore, the screen is looking for the top 10 stocks over the last 52 weeks and then the bottom beta. Or am I missing something?
